Exotic and delicious, the Fuyu Persimmon is a lesser known tree, whose fruit was aptly nicknamed "the fruit of the Gods" by the Greeks.

Rich both in color and in flavor, the deep orange exterior seems to add to the fruit's sweetness.

The Fuyu is firm, softening and sweetening to a jelly-like consistency once fully ripe. Resembling a miniature pumpkin, this succulent fruit with a honey-like sweetness will fit in the palm of your hand.

Although not widely known, the Fuyu Persimmon is the most popular of its breed, accounting for 80 percent of all persimmon sales commercially. That's probably because its unique sweetness puts the Fuyu in a class by itself.

A diverse fruit because of its distinct sweetness, Fuyu can be sliced and eaten with lime juice, used in an Autumn Salad or as a cereal topping and is commonly used to make homemade salsa.

This incredible little fruit is only limited by the harvester's imagination.

It's Easy to Plant your Fuyu Persimmon
Step 1 - Dig Your Hole Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Fuyu Persimmon. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.

Step 2 - Place Your Tree Next, separate the roots of your Fuyu Persimmon gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Fuyu Persimmon again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.
